Tacoma Dome

The Tacoma Segment includes the area from the Fife/Tacoma city limit across the Puyallup River to the existing Tacoma Dome Station, through reservation and trust lands of the Puyallup Tribe of Indians. The Tacoma Segment of the project will have two stations: Portland Avenue and Tacoma Dome.

The following station area information focuses on the Tacoma Dome Preferred Alternative . Sound Transit continues to study all alternatives in the Final EIS.

Tacoma Dome Station design

The Preferred Tacoma Dome Station would be adjacent to the Sounder tracks at East G St and East 25th St. Sound Transit and the City of Tacoma are collaborating to design a station that will support the Tacoma community. Our station plans propose several changes to the area directly within and around the station including:

  • Sidewalks and bike lanes to ensure people of all ages and abilities can walk, bike, or roll within the station area.
  • Relocated transit center with clear sightlines to transit connections and station entrances.
  • Travel lanes and street parking to balance the access needs of passengers.
  • Landscaping and trees lining all streets adjacent to the station to provide shade and separation between different travel modes.

Explore the early concepts for the Preferred Tacoma Dome Station

A quarter-mile radius is labeled, indicating a 10-minute walking distance to and from the station. The station is on East 25th Street between East G Street and East D Street, near the existing Pierce County parking garages. Other nearby transit options are shown, including the T Line, Amtrak, and Sounder.

On the west side of the station along East 25th Street is a station entrance, four accessible pick-up and drop-off spaces, and two paratransit bus bays. On the east side of the station along East Bay Street is a second entrance, 19 standard pick-up and drop-off spaces, and 10 active bus bays. Highlighted routes show key pedestrian and bicycle connections north along East 26th Street, East G Street, Puyallup Avenue, and McKinley Avenue. The station is projected to serve 11,230 daily riders by 2042.

Bike racks are located near both entrances, and bike lockers are located near the East G Street entrance. Buses routes are shown on East 26th Street/East G Street, Puyallup Avenue, and McKinley Avenue. There are proposed crosswalks and signalized intersections along Puyallup Avenue and near the active bus bays.

Tacoma Dome Station access planning

Sound Transit and the City of Tacoma are identifying improvements that will make it easier to travel to Tacoma Dome Station while walking, biking, rolling, or taking transit. The potential projects below are informed by the City of Tacoma’s development plans and previous feedback from the City and the public. Please note that funding is limited, meaning there may not be the resources to build all potential station access projects below.

As you review these potential projects, consider whether they would make it easier to get to the station. Your feedback will help guide which projects are built and how they’re designed.

Learn about the potential Tacoma Dome Station access projects

Aerial map of the future Preferred Tacoma Dome Station showing 8 proposed station access projects within a one-mile, or approximately 10-minute walk, of the station. The text below includes all project names, locations, and descriptions.

Potential corridor projects

  1. Puyallup Ave Pedestrian & Bicycle Improvements: Street updates from South C St to Fife City limits, with improved or new crossings, pedestrian facilities, bicycle facilities, and bus facilities.
  2. E 25th St Pedestrian Improvements: Improve pedestrian accessibility on East 25th St from South C St to East D St.
  3. E 25th St Sidewalk Improvements: Complete gaps in sidewalk and improve pedestrian accessibility on East 25th St from East G St to East J St.
  4. E 26th St Pedestrian & Bicycle Improvements: Enhance pedestrian safety and travel on East 26th St from A Street to East F St. If East 26th St is determined to be a primary bike connection to transit as part of station area planning, this project would include bicycle connections.
  5. East D St/E McKinley Way Pedestrian & Bicycle Improvements: Bicycle lane separation on East D St/East McKinley Way from East 21st St to East 34th St. New pedestrian connection on East McKinley Way between East D St and East G St.

Other potential projects

  1. Tacoma Dome Station Area Pedestrian Improvements: Improve pedestrian safety and accessibility at spot locations not included in larger corridor projects, including East 27th St and East F St.
  2. Railroad Crossing Improvements: Improve bicycle and pedestrian safety at railroad crossings in the Dome District, including crossings on East D St and East C St from East 25th St to East 26th St.
  3. Pacific Ave Pedestrian Improvements: Pedestrian safety improvements across the I-5 on-ramp between South 28th St and South 30th St, including improved crossings and filled sidewalk gaps.
